Sunday afternoon...i have a few minutes so i thought i would sit down and write...maybe an update...maybe not. I am amazed at how quickly time has passed since June 11, 2009. It is crazy...life continues to go on...

* I returned back to work....code red!!! *grin*
* I am trying to get my mothers home cleaned out and failing in every area (it is sooooo hard to go through her things...so hard).
* a pug puppy was left in our backyard and we had no idea why!!!
* I helped someone out and they have still not paid back the $500.00 they promised.
* My basement has a minor mishap and flooded
* Mid-years are due and we have a week to complete them!!
* We almost lost my father...he was in ICU for 2 days and a regular room for 2 more days (it was the same hospital my mom has passed away in 4 weeks earlier)
* My Aunt Dorthy passed away 1 week and 1 day after we buried my mother.
* The 4th of July and Fathers Day came and left without my mother.
* People are dieing all over the place...Michael Jackson, Farrah...
* Baby girl is still away from home and I worry that she did not have enough time at home to grieve for her Grandmother (she has never experience death this close to home and she was forced to leave is the day after we buried her Grandmother).
* I am still in denial...

*sigh* As you can see life still goes on and the sun still rises and sets everyday....

Reflections of this week....

* I broke down and balled in the middle of the Easter aisles at Target (hunny bunny looked so sad cuz he could do nothing to get me past the "Gigi will not be here for Easter" moment)

* I decided to make the plunge and purchase my wide lens!!!! Thanks to Comcast for a great bonus this year!!!!

* My "something new" this week was ...nails and hair!!! wahooo...it felt good to be about me this week

* Sent Gigi's Easter box to her this week...

* took thousands of escalated calls this week (ok...not thousands but when they are screaming and cursing it feels like thousands!!!)

* made a date for Couples Night

* massive drama at midnight last night in the front of the house (RTD bus, COPS, "cousins", screaming, fast card...)

* discovered the puppies are going to make great "watch dogs" (see above)

Thursday and i have lots of thoughts....

* it is snowing... i thought winter was over.
* maybe i will be able to make a snowman...
* Gigi left yesterday and i am missing her...
* really missing Gigi...
* i need to blog more...i love facebook but i should be blogging more...
* Couple's Night...the snow is bad so i think we will cancel it....
* i am not sure if i am happy or sad about that...
* pot luck this sunday at church...we need to bring chicken....
* we had a SNOW DAY at work...left at 1:45 arrived home after 3:00...
* Mr. Snuggles hates the snow...and I hate that he refuses to poop outside
* i hate cleaning up poop!!!
* i love my family....

Random Thoughts....

* wow! I was just thinking about the weather...another nice day...hmmm where is Mr.Winter?
* speaking of winter I need to make the hot cocoa we received for Christmas...I would hate for it to go to waste (thanks Auntie Virgie and Uncle Frank!!)
* i am remembering the pictures we took when we went to Starbucks over Christmas vacation (Gigi was home). I need to get those uploaded and printed.
* gigi...i hope she is having fun in Seattle.
* i know her..she is probably concerned (as we are) with the tornado's that past through there...we are praying for everyone and hope all is ok...
* she needs to return my call...i need to know her vacations dates so i can order her ticket.
* *sigh* I am liking facebook....i think it is fun but i want to stay committed to my blogging. fun stuff...
* tomorrow is my "fish friday" but i am not really in the mood...i wonder why?
* Valentine's Day is Saturday and I have not even planned....wow!!
* where the heck is time going?
* speaking of time..Reggie was running late last night so we did not get to church...who knew I would miss it so???
*....hmmmm time sure goes fast...i need to get the puppies outside (they just ate)....

random thoughts...

* why is monday such a hard day to get through?
* why are the puppies taking up so much of my time?
* who's idea was it to get 2 puppies at once? hmmmmm...mine?
* why? why? why?
* the Lord is good and it feels good to hear his voice and respond.

* i love my hunny bunny...

* *sigh* time to go...

Wow!!! It is amazing how fast a week can go...it flies by!! It is already Thursday! It has been a good week...I was able to go grocery shopping, do laundry, make meals every night but tonight (meeting night), go to bible study, plan a fun "anniversary" for one of my agents, plan a "birthday" for another agent, read, exercise, catch up on some DVR shows and enjoy the puppies, use my 30% off Archivers coupon. Wow...having said that makes me feel better...but why, oh, why do I want to focus on the things I did NOT do??? Hmmmmmm...I am sooooo like that and it is not good. Something I need to look at (I think it is that administrator in me....)!!

Some midweek random thoughts...

* Missing Gigi and wondering what she is doing? Is she happy? Is she enjoying herself? Is God moving in her? I sure pray so....

* Ann...I pray she is safe and at peace. She is so far away. I am amazed at these two ladies...they are young and have opted to follow what they feel God wants for them. At 18!!! Wow!!! At 18 I was getting drunk and having fun in college...caring for noone but me. Wow!!! These are 2 amazing young girls.

* *sigh* I am not sure what I should be doing for God. I know I am to pray and I am working on that but there has to be more..... I have an idea but hmmmmmm.... I am so unsure. I hate thinking of failing but at the same time I was thinking the other day...You just need to go forward...if it fails it will not be because you did not try and that is what counts....hmmmmmm....

* God...He is amazing but why oh why does he require us to be obedient? hmmmmmmm....interesting thought. NO I am not saying it is wrong of Him to require it I jusy wonder why....*sigh*

* He is merciful...and I am so thankful!!!

* Wow!!! are we in a recession? If so why is that innaguration costing millions??? Familes are starving and we are going to spend that much on this? Wow!!! I thought demorcrats were for the people and their best interest??? Is spending this kind of money in the best interest of "the people" or is it in the best interest of "THE PEOPLE"????

* i need to take a picture for today...hmmmmmmmmm

it is Friday...the weekend! wahoo!!
